For example,“Communication,” “Leadership,” and“Organizational”  \n• Efficiently relates your past jobs to relevant skills of the job you are seeking  \n• Once you have decided which job fits which skill set, you will place the jobs in reverse chronological order only within that skill set  \nFunctional Résumé  \n• Best for those who have gaps in work history or for those changing career paths  \n• Instead of skills being listed under a job, the skills are grouped together from all different jobs and placed under these “skill fields”  \n• Education appears last (considering your degree does not line up with job you’re applying for)  \n20 Résumé Tips  \n1. Aim for one page of strong and simple information  \n2. Keep font size between 10-12 pts.  \n3. Margins between .5-1 inch  \n4.

Get someone else to proofread your resume  \n16. Make sure it is easy to read  \n17. Use numerical values to describe accomplishments if it is applicable  \n18.

Represent yourself well: be honest and avoid wordiness  \nStandard Résumé: Format  \nAfter your name and personal information, your résumé should have at least two categories: Education and Professional Experience.
